been meaning to get a pic of my truck on here for a long time but never got around to it...here is mine...the truck itsself is pretty dirty from a run at the local track..but the body is freshly painted...I havnt had the heart to go destroy it yet...I worked so hard on it...

Here is one that I finished the other day. I also have one finished for a Stampede and Rustler. They are in those forums. This one is pearl white and Black with silve flake. You can't relly see the flake that well . Let me know what you think.
Look at the others too.
One in rustler and one in Stampede.

This is my first time painting a body. The masking didn't go as well as I would have liked. I had a little painting running under the masks for the flames, but I still think it turned out OK for my first try.

this is my maxx is got K&N filter (not shown) failsafe, traxxas tuned pipe, ally skids and rear body mount and servo horn, custom linkages, proline outbacks with maxx mashers on them, hi-tec ultra torque steering servo, varad undercar lighting kit , painted bits. its not much i know but it keeps me very happy and yes that is a pro .15 still running and yes it can pop wheelies!
sorry bout the pics its only a 2 meag pixel camera

it's basically a stock original T maxx, other than widemaxx front suspension, custom rear limited slip differential, custom front skidplate, custom throttle servo mount(broke both ends ears off somehow) it's not shown in the picture, but it's just a chunk of the same aluminum I used for the skidplate in a 1" strip wrapped around the servo, pretty simple, oh, and it has RPM wheels, which I keep forgetting about since it came with them, I got it used for $200 back in april(it was stock back then), I have the stock wheels too, just need to find some money to spend on a second set of tires...

about the skidplate, you probably realized it's pretty thin aluminum, I'm aware of that and it does bend pretty easy, I found some really hard steel sheet metal(heat treated) and made a chunk to go in the important part of the skidplate, so it's basically indestructable underneith, and the angled part is rolled over on the edges so that gives it some strength(came up with that idea after the pictures were taken), and wrapping it around the bumper adds quite a bit of strength too, and smooths it out, it's been a work in progress

the body is as low as it can go without hitting the bumper mounts(it's been trimmed since the picture so it doesn't hang below the front bumper anymore), well it's actually resting on them, but it works, I busted a front shock tower with the body up higher, and the body mounts got bent backward with it up higher, so I decided to lower it a bunch and it's worked great since, oh, and there's a lot less paint on it now too, I decided to stop caring what it looks like and just beat the snot out of it
